Are there any left-handed shooters of Sheridans, or other pumpers ???

I'm a southpaw, but I don't think I have collector blood in me...

At $500, my drool stops flowing so readily
At $1000, my breaths start to shorten
At $1500 my sphincter tightens considerably

If I were to make a winning bid, a coroner would be necessary. Whether that would be from natural causes or matrimonial repercussions I cannot predict....

I'm a lefty too, but for that much I'll just adapt and overcome as always.  Firearms, airguns, cars, aircraft and scissors are, for the most part, designed without much thought for left-handed use.  Even my wife complains that I put kitchen utensils back in the drawers bass ackwards.

Ambi what? Had to goggle that one...So your a switch pumper?

Oww, switch pumpers.I heard about them. Front to back or back to front? That's the real question.

 I've been shooting right-handed rifles, left-handed for so long that I don't think I'd even know what to do with a left-handed rifle.

I've been shooting right-handed rifles, left-handed for so long that I don't think I'd even know what to do with a left-handed rifle.     

I hear that, what I've always done with bolt action rifles is to just pull the weapon into my shoulder with my left hand as I bring my right hand down from the forend to the bolt to cycle the action.  I don't see how it's that different from right handed shooters, other than the fact that they have less distance to travel to cycle the action.

I did recently buy an MRODAIR pistol based on the online photos that showed the bolt on the right hand side.  Turned out, they'd switched the bolt to the other side to accommodate right handed shooters.  No problem though, I like it so much I'm going to buy the carbine version (Plinkster) as well.  I'm going to switch the breeches so that I'll have a lefty pistol and a lefty rifle, though I'm not sure if it'll be any improvement, given that I've adapted to right handed bolt actions.

Have you noticed that you keep getting auto-corrected from Googled to goggled ?
It kept happening to me until I saved the word googled.

I'm right handed in everything else in life. Except shooting a rifle I shoot lefty. It's because i have a dominant left eye. I shoot pistols right handed, but aim with left eye.

[wolverine]

my 2260 has a left hand breech, love it.

i look for rifles that can easily be cycled by a left hand shooter before purchasing.

most bullpups are useless to left handers because of the bolt/lever placement.

not too many arms manufacturers carry really ambi rifles. 

if i had the cash, i'd pick up an air arms galahad, a rare, true ambi air rifle.

I'm glad it doesn't happen on my PC. It does happen when I text & it drives me nuts. To lazy to disable it...

I have never placed bids on this site. Is there a count-down clock as on eBay?

  Gunbroker is run much like E Bay. Open the page with the rifle, & you will find the info.

[Yng@hrt]

Thanks. This site has a "15 min rule", unlike eBay where a bidder can "Snipe".

Gunbroker with the 15 minute rule becomes a different game than EBay.  If I want something on eBay I wait till the last 15 seconds and put in a bid for what it's worth to me and then add $25.  Lol.  It's a gamble.  With gunbroker you can win it if you have the cash.  My heart has been broken more than once as the 15 minutes goes on and on.  I have found more crazy prices on EBay, gunbroker seems to have more sophisticated bidders.

I'm a Southpaw and have been shooting right-handed rifles for 60 years.  Right now, I own a few pumpers (favorite is a Benjamin 397).
We lefties have to deal with many products designed for right-handed people.
